Senior Solutions Architect - Email & Collaboration Security - London UK Why This Role Exists The Email & Collaboration Security (ECS) product line sits at the intersection of some of the most consequential challenges in enterprise security today: AI-augmented threats, sprawling collaboration surfaces, multi-cloud delivery complexity, and the expectation that detection and response capabilities keep pace with a threat landscape that does not wait. This architecture is not greenfield. It carries two decades of accumulated product decisions, integration contracts, and operational constraints. The right candidate understands why that history matters before proposing how to move beyond it. Reasoning about legacy shape and evolutionary trajectory simultaneously is not optional; it is the job. The successful candidate will serve as connective tissue across product management, engineering, and the broader Architecture Leadership Team - turning customer and business problems into coherent, deliverable technical direction, and owning the decisions that give ECS engineering teams a stable foundation to move fast with quality. AI-First Ways of Working Mimecast is an AI-first engineering organisation. This is not a cultural aspiration - it is an operating expectation. The person in this role is expected to use AI tools as a genuine, daily part of how they work: for design exploration and iteration, documentation, analysis, prototyping, and research synthesis. This means having a real, practised opinion on where AI tooling accelerates quality decisions and where it introduces risk. It also means designing systems that incorporate AI components thoughtfully: understanding the implications of LLM integration, agent boundaries, prompt and data-contract stability, and evaluation coverage for AI-driven features. Candidates who treat AI tooling as optional or experimental are not the right fit for this role. The expectation is fluency and daily practice, not passing familiarity. The ECS Domain ECS covers the following product and capability areas: Email threat detection and prevention Email security efficacy Collaboration security DMARC analyzer Data platform and observability Analysis and Response End user application integration Internal operations enablement What You Will Do Lead from Problem Space, Not Solution Space The role engages at the problem-framing stage, not after requirements have already hardened into tickets. This means facilitating workshops with PMs, UX, and engineers to surface real customer constraints and articulate what good looks like in business and user terms before any technical shape is proposed. Own Integration Contracts as Product Artefacts The durable interfaces - APIs, event contracts, data schemas - that connect ECS capabilities to the broader Mimecast platform are first-class artefacts owned by this role. They outlast individual features, and the coordination work that makes integrations actually land across teams and time is part of the remit. Build the Architectural Context Engineering Teams Operate Inside ADRs, service interaction patterns, NFR targets, and data contracts are not documentation - they are the substrate that lets engineering teams and AI-assisted development workflows make consistent decisions at scale. The artefacts produced in this role are clear, reasoned, and durable. Govern Without Blocking Governance is a mechanism for alignment and acceleration, not gatekeeping. Structure and discipline are introduced where they reduce risk or improve quality - and removed where ceremony adds cost without value. The role engages the Chief Architect early, pushes back constructively when platform standards do not fit the ECS context, and helps teams close decisions with conviction rather than endless review. Reason About Cost and Unit Economics Infrastructure choices are sized, cost trajectories modelled for new architecture work, and unexpected spend is flagged with a proposed remediation. The frame is cost per outcome - per protected mailbox, per remediated incident - not just monthly AWS spend. Communicate at Every Altitude A one-page decision record that lands with engineers, a solution brief that holds up under senior architecture review, a strategy narrative that resonates with product and commercial leadership - this role operates across all of those registers. Whiteboard sessions produce actual decisions, not just richer ambiguity. What You Will Bring 10+ years building and operating production SaaS systems, with at least 3 years in a Senior Architect or equivalent role carrying product-shaping responsibility. A genuinely broad architectural lens - thinking about system shape, data flows, and organisational constraints rather than reaching for the nearest deep technical rabbit hole. Comfort operating across cloud-native patterns (AWS, Kafka, managed services, distributed event architectures) at high throughput - able to reason about trade-offs with confidence, without needing to be the most technically specialist person in the room. Product Understanding - Not Just Technical Understanding prior close collaboration with Product Managers and UX designers, with an understanding of jobs-to-be-done framing and a real opinion on what makes a product bet good - not just a technical bet. Genuine customer orientation: asking what problem the customer has before asking how to build the feature. Understanding of SaaS unit economics, the commercial implications of architectural choices, and how to reason about scale from a product perspective as well as a systems one. The Right Mindset for Complex, Inherited Systems An understanding of what twenty years of software history means in a production system - no assumption of greenfield, and no treatment of legacy as only debt; it is accumulated context. Structure and discipline as cognitive defaults, not imposed processes - thorough, well-reasoned artefacts, and a habit of leaving things clearer than they were found. An ability to connect dots across a large picture with many moving parts, make a call, and communicate it clearly - rather than waiting for certainty that will not arrive. Self-Direction and Strategic Initiative A proactive self-starter who identifies the right problems to work on without being told, and drives them to resolution. Comfortable acting independently within a set of principles, while keeping the right stakeholders informed and in sync - not seeking permission, but maintaining alignment. Thrives with ambiguity and treats it as a problem to be structured, not a reason to pause. Learning Orientation - Not Encyclopaedic Knowledge Able to reach a solution even without all the knowledge in front of them - a problem-solver who knows how to navigate to an answer, not a mnemonic database. AI tooling treated as a core capability multiplier, with a real daily practice in design work, documentation, research synthesis, and prototyping. Stays ahead of where the market and the technology are going, and brings that signal back into product and architecture decisions. Bonus Points Background in email security, threat detection, DLP, identity, or data platforms. Familiarity with agentic AI, MCP (Model Context Protocol), or LLM application architecture. Experience with eval design for AI features, product discovery practices, or data contract / data mesh approaches. Exposure to M365 or GWS integration patterns, SMTP relay architecture, or cloud-native security SaaS. What We Offer Impact: architecture decisions that protect millions of mailboxes and shape the technical direction of one of Mimecast's core product pillars. Voice: a direct working relationship with the Chief Architect and a genuine say in technology direction - not an advisory lane. Senior peers: a small, high-trust Architecture Leadership Team where everyone operates at a high level. Qualifications Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field - or equivalent demonstrable experience. 10+ years of professional software engineering and architecture experience, with at least 3 years in a senior architecture or principal engineering role. A track record of product-shaping responsibility, not just technical delivery. Active, daily use of AI development tools in a professional setting - not experimentation, practice.

Senior Solutions Architect - Email & Collaboration Security - London UK Why This Role Exists The Email & Collaboration Security (ECS) product line sits at the intersection of some of the most consequential challenges in enterprise security today: AI-augmented threats, sprawling collaboration surfaces, multi-cloud delivery complexity, and the expectation that detection and response capabilities keep pace with a threat landscape that does not wait. This architecture is not greenfield. It carries two decades of accumulated product decisions, integration contracts, and operational constraints. The right candidate understands why that history matters before proposing how to move beyond it. Reasoning about legacy shape and evolutionary trajectory simultaneously is not optional; it is the job. The successful candidate will serve as connective tissue across product management, engineering, and the broader Architecture Leadership Team - turning customer and business problems into coherent, deliverable technical direction, and owning the decisions that give ECS engineering teams a stable foundation to move fast with quality. AI-First Ways of Working Mimecast is an AI-first engineering organisation. This is not a cultural aspiration - it is an operating expectation. The person in this role is expected to use AI tools as a genuine, daily part of how they work: for design exploration and iteration, documentation, analysis, prototyping, and research synthesis. This means having a real, practised opinion on where AI tooling accelerates quality decisions and where it introduces risk. It also means designing systems that incorporate AI components thoughtfully: understanding the implications of LLM integration, agent boundaries, prompt and data-contract stability, and evaluation coverage for AI-driven features. Candidates who treat AI tooling as optional or experimental are not the right fit for this role. The expectation is fluency and daily practice, not passing familiarity. The ECS Domain ECS covers the following product and capability areas: Email threat detection and prevention Email security efficacy Collaboration security DMARC analyzer Data platform and observability Analysis and Response End user application integration Internal operations enablement What You Will Do Lead from Problem Space, Not Solution Space The role engages at the problem-framing stage, not after requirements have already hardened into tickets. This means facilitating workshops with PMs, UX, and engineers to surface real customer constraints and articulate what good looks like in business and user terms before any technical shape is proposed. Own Integration Contracts as Product Artefacts The durable interfaces - APIs, event contracts, data schemas - that connect ECS capabilities to the broader Mimecast platform are first-class artefacts owned by this role. They outlast individual features, and the coordination work that makes integrations actually land across teams and time is part of the remit. Build the Architectural Context Engineering Teams Operate Inside ADRs, service interaction patterns, NFR targets, and data contracts are not documentation - they are the substrate that lets engineering teams and AI-assisted development workflows make consistent decisions at scale. The artefacts produced in this role are clear, reasoned, and durable. Govern Without Blocking Governance is a mechanism for alignment and acceleration, not gatekeeping. Structure and discipline are introduced where they reduce risk or improve quality - and removed where ceremony adds cost without value. The role engages the Chief Architect early, pushes back constructively when platform standards do not fit the ECS context, and helps teams close decisions with conviction rather than endless review. Reason About Cost and Unit Economics Infrastructure choices are sized, cost trajectories modelled for new architecture work, and unexpected spend is flagged with a proposed remediation. The frame is cost per outcome - per protected mailbox, per remediated incident - not just monthly AWS spend. Communicate at Every Altitude A one-page decision record that lands with engineers, a solution brief that holds up under senior architecture review, a strategy narrative that resonates with product and commercial leadership - this role operates across all of those registers. Whiteboard sessions produce actual decisions, not just richer ambiguity. What You Will Bring 10+ years building and operating production SaaS systems, with at least 3 years in a Senior Architect or equivalent role carrying product-shaping responsibility. A genuinely broad architectural lens - thinking about system shape, data flows, and organisational constraints rather than reaching for the nearest deep technical rabbit hole. Comfort operating across cloud-native patterns (AWS, Kafka, managed services, distributed event architectures) at high throughput - able to reason about trade-offs with confidence, without needing to be the most technically specialist person in the room. Product Understanding - Not Just Technical Understanding prior close collaboration with Product Managers and UX designers, with an understanding of jobs-to-be-done framing and a real opinion on what makes a product bet good - not just a technical bet. Genuine customer orientation: asking what problem the customer has before asking how to build the feature. Understanding of SaaS unit economics, the commercial implications of architectural choices, and how to reason about scale from a product perspective as well as a systems one. The Right Mindset for Complex, Inherited Systems An understanding of what twenty years of software history means in a production system - no assumption of greenfield, and no treatment of legacy as only debt; it is accumulated context. Structure and discipline as cognitive defaults, not imposed processes - thorough, well-reasoned artefacts, and a habit of leaving things clearer than they were found. An ability to connect dots across a large picture with many moving parts, make a call, and communicate it clearly - rather than waiting for certainty that will not arrive. Self-Direction and Strategic Initiative A proactive self-starter who identifies the right problems to work on without being told, and drives them to resolution. Comfortable acting independently within a set of principles, while keeping the right stakeholders informed and in sync - not seeking permission, but maintaining alignment. Thrives with ambiguity and treats it as a problem to be structured, not a reason to pause. Learning Orientation - Not Encyclopaedic Knowledge Able to reach a solution even without all the knowledge in front of them - a problem-solver who knows how to navigate to an answer, not a mnemonic database. AI tooling treated as a core capability multiplier, with a real daily practice in design work, documentation, research synthesis, and prototyping. Stays ahead of where the market and the technology are going, and brings that signal back into product and architecture decisions. Bonus Points Background in email security, threat detection, DLP, identity, or data platforms. Familiarity with agentic AI, MCP (Model Context Protocol), or LLM application architecture. Experience with eval design for AI features, product discovery practices, or data contract / data mesh approaches. Exposure to M365 or GWS integration patterns, SMTP relay architecture, or cloud-native security SaaS. What We Offer Impact: architecture decisions that protect millions of mailboxes and shape the technical direction of one of Mimecast's core product pillars. Voice: a direct working relationship with the Chief Architect and a genuine say in technology direction - not an advisory lane. Senior peers: a small, high-trust Architecture Leadership Team where everyone operates at a high level. Qualifications Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field - or equivalent demonstrable experience. 10+ years of professional software engineering and architecture experience, with at least 3 years in a senior architecture or principal engineering role. A track record of product-shaping responsibility, not just technical delivery. Active, daily use of AI development tools in a professional setting - not experimentation, practice.

Experience designing and building services within a microservices or domain-driven architecture - defining service boundaries and working with asynchronous, event-driven communication (e.g. via Kafka) - and an understanding of how those decisions play out once services are running in production. CI/CD, containerisation, and modern DevOps practices applied as part of everyday delivery. Security best practices embedded in day-to-day development. An interest in AI-assisted development tooling and how it can improve productivity and code quality.

Visit our YouTube channel to watch the full series and come and discover your potential. The Data and Information Governance (DIG) team within the Office of the Data Protection Office is an independent office within HMRC, and has a role set out in policies to ensure HMRC processes its data in accordance with data protection law and regulations. It advocates for data subjects' rights, and is a conduit to the regulator, the Information Commissioner. The Software Development team is there to design, build and implement innovative IT solutions, to support DIG and related partners in the business. Not quite a standard IT team, it is embedded within the DIG team and requires the developers balance their technical skills with knowledge of the policy areas the teams are working on. Job description About the Role We are looking for a motivated and detail focused Information Architect (IA) to join the team. This role sits within the Government Knowledge & Information Management (GKIM) profession and plays a critical part in ensuring HMRC information is well structured, findable, secure and compliant with legislation and departmental policy. Alongside core information architecture responsibilities, the successful candidate will also use Power Platform low code tools (Power Apps, Power BI, OneTrust and Dataverse) to prototype and demonstrate Information Architecture requirements. This is not a coding or software engineering role. Service Support & Supplier Liaison The Information Architect will provide first line functional support to end users on issues related to information structure, metadata, templates, classification rules, and completion of Information Asset Registers (IAR), Record Of Processing Activity (ROPA) and Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) records. The postholder will triage reported system issues to determine whether they relate to information design or system behaviour, resolving those within GKIM remit and escalating technical faults to the external supplier where required. The Information Architect will act as the business owner contact point, logging issues, providing clear information governance context, and monitoring supplier response and resolution times. While the Information Architect will ensure that system fixes remain compliant with information governance and GKIM policy, all technical errors, defects, and system engineering changes will be resolved by the supplier, not the Information Architect. This maintains appropriate professional boundaries between GKIM (information design and governance) and technical delivery roles. Person specification Key Responsibilities Information Architecture & Standards Develop and maintain metadata models, taxonomies, controlled vocabularies and classification schemes aligned to GKIM standards. Produce Information Handling Models (IHMs), information flows and information lifecycle requirements. Shape structured information environments such as file plans, folder structures, catalogues and knowledge bases. Governance, Assurance & Compliance Ensure information structures meet policy, legal, security and retention requirements. Contribute to information related assurance activities and reviews. Provide clear guidance, documentation and interpretation to digital delivery teams and stakeholders. Power Platform Low Code Configuration (Explicit Requirement) Build and configure Power Apps (Canvas or Model Driven) and Power BI to prototype metadata structures, classification rules and information processes. Configure Dataverse tables, fields, relationships, business rules, forms and views aligned to artefacts. Use Power Fx for basic logic and validation (no coding required). Produce low code prototypes and proofs of concept that demonstrate IA standards and support user understanding. Identify where requirements move beyond low code capability and transition them to Government Digital and Data (GDAD) engineers appropriately. Collaboration with Technical Teams Work alongside developers, architects and delivery teams to ensure KIM best practice is embedded in technical solutions. Translate artefacts into clear, actionable requirements for engineering teams. Maintain clear boundaries: the Information Architect own the information design; GDAD owns technical build. Information Quality, Findability & Usability Review and improve existing information structures for consistency, clarity and usability. Help teams implement metadata and classification effectively to support search and retrieval. Stakeholder Engagement Engage users and business teams to understand information needs and structure requirements. Communicate concepts and decisions in accessible, non-technical language. Promote good information management behaviours across HMRC. What We Offer A supportive GKIM professional community. Opportunities to influence information standards. Flexible working arrangements. Essential Criteria Experience or strong understanding of metadata, taxonomies, classification and information lifecycle. Ability to configure and use low code tools such as Power Apps, Power Query, Power BI, OneTrust and Dataverse. Ability to ensure low code solutions meet accessibility standards. Strong analytical and problem-solving skills. Ability to communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical audiences. Desirable Criteria Experience with Power Fx.
